Attend Naropa as a Non-Degree Student

Naropa offers several options that allow non-degree students to participate in the
Naropa experience without applying through our Admissions office to be a degree-seeking
student. Non-degree students have the opportunity to take Naropa classes for either
noncredit or credit, online or on campus.

All non-degree students will register for courses via the Public Registration tab
on MyNaropa.

Noncredit

Please see Extended Studies for extensive noncredit course offerings. Please keep in mind that courses taken
for noncredit are not graded, will not be recorded in a transcript, receive no academic
credit, and cannot be transferred into a degree program. They cannot be converted
to credit at any later date. Non-degree students may not audit Naropa classes.

Online Classes (Distance Learning)

Non-degree students can take many online classes for credit or noncredit. See Distance Learning at Naropa for information including list of classes, FAQ, credit and noncredit options,
tuition and fees, demonstration classes, and directions on registering for online
classes. Please keep in mind that courses taken for noncredit are not graded, will
not be recorded in a transcript, receive no academic credit, and cannot be transferred
into a degree program. They cannot be converted to credit at any later date.

On-campus

Non-degree students seeking credit can register for some Naropa courses on a space-available
basis. Please see the schedule of Courses Available to the Public for a complete list. Each semester non-degree students may take a maximum of 11 undergraduate
credits or 8 graduate credits. Students wishing to take more credits should apply
as visiting students.

Registration

All non-degree students will register using our student portal system, MyNaropa. To register, click on the "Public Registration" tab and select the appropriate registration
